Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: This tire blew out on the freeway with no warning at freeway speed,the tire destroyed the aluminium rim, i sent what was left of the tire to pirelli, they claim that their examination indicates no manufacturing defects, but that the "tire suffered an impact to the wheel at the 6:00 clock position the impact was severe enough to cause complete deflection of the tire down to the well smearing the interliner rubber on the well of the wheel." i did not have an impact, the tire blew out without warning. i have retained the tire and rim. i have 2 other tires on my vehicle and i am concerned that there may be a defect in the tire. *ak (dot number: ckhfgbc356 tiresize: 215/75r15)
